Too Much Between Us

There's you, you're sleeping over there
Whilst me I'm sitting here
With so much sea between us
I can't make it much more clear

Far too few and far to follow
For shame I'll heed the cry
Be with me when I need a drink
Be with me when I die

Had forgotten about this song until stumbling across it recently.  From Procol Harum's 1969 album, A Salty Dog.  Has similarities to the sound of some of the quieter early 70s Peter Gabriel-era Genesis songs.  Also reminds me, melodically and arrangement wise, of Standing In The Doorway from Bob Dylan's 1997's album, Time Out Of Mind.
